The eccentric chief executive once again sparred with billionaire hedge fund manager David Einhorn on Twitter last week, inviting him to tour Tesla's factories and offering sympathy for recent hardships at his Greenlight Capital. Musk also accused Einhorn of publishing "numerous false allegations against Tesla" in a recent letter to investors.
In response, Einhorn took Musk up on his tour offer, saying that he "might learn the difference between your alien dreadnought factory and cars made by hand in a tent."
For context, Tesla reported better-than-expected third-quarter results the week before last, sending shares soaring by 20%.
